Well, if you are going for Belle, a monologue that displays your vulnerability...

Theres a huge range of parts in BATB no matter your color.

Comic relief is leFou and Gaston (comedy)
Then theres the father who is both loving and zany (Maybe a comedy mono about love)
Beast for really deep actors (i agree with a "vulnerable" mono for that part)
Belle if you can be both extremely happy and extrememly sad (Mono that has a sudden change of feeling maybe)

My HS did it and it was a ton of fun...Good Luck!

My HS (same as La Vie's) did it, Its such a good show for high schools. HE completely right about his stuff though. If you're looking at Lefou, Gaston, Maurice, Cogsworth, Lumiere, Babette i'd go with a comedic monlogue. For someone like belle or ms. Potts i'd go with a sentimental sort of piece. Then for the beast i'd go for a dramatic "I hate the world monologue."

But its so much fun I played Lefou and had a blast.

I wouldn't worry too much about the monologue. If you're going for a good role, the song's much more important. And if it's a high school, having the teacher like you is a good way to get cast too. Start with those.

BWAY boi has a good point. Actually he is completely right. the song is much more important.
